Great hat for shade - Tilley Airflo Broad Brim Hat - 3D Mesh - Unisex

This is my third Tilley hat, it is replacing one of an earlier version of the same model. I wore the previous hat regularly for hiking, birding, canoeing, and just general running around from 2008 until 2020. These hats hold up extremely well and are quite functional and handsome. The new one is made of Supplex nylon where my previous one was cotton. The new one is noticeably lighter weight and probably cooler since nylon wicks away moisture and lets it evaporate better than cotton. I'm guessing that it will also be easier to keep clean. Over the years I've received many complements on the great looking hat. The new one is very comfortable and stays on my head even in strong breeze. If you adjust the wind cord as described in the owners manual and pull the back of the cord below of your head, the hat will stay on even in a fairly strong breeze.
